Kids Go Bonkers for AFTER SCHOOL HOURS Cabaret at Adelaide Fringe

After School Hours is an outrageously fun, wonderfully wacky cabaret for kids! Who would have thought kids would go Nuts for cabaret? It's a whole lot of fun & games, bringing imagination to life with our dancing puppets, incredible circus stars, wacky carnies, and live jazz band.

Set in a whimsical vaudeville style world let Australia's best entertainers show you things of wonder and get set to laugh out loud.

"Come with us on an exciting journey celebrating acceptance, friendship and things that are a little bit different with some wonderfully weird characters' - says artistic director Bettie Bombshell

Sure it's a show for the kids, but we pack a little something for the parents lunch box too, so you don't have to glaze over while the kids have all the fun. What we do is so different, with a huge range of fringe performers you can count on them to create something spectacular and different every time we open the tent.

The line-up is nothing less than spectacular with amazing and talented handpicked fringe performers, all backed by our very own live 6 piece After Hours jazz band.

Hosted by Award winning Cabaret Darling Tash York, Vaudeville clowning mime extraordinaire David Splatt (Australia's Got Talent finalist) and the inimitable Miss Bettie Bombshell (Burlesque Hall of Fame) as well as special guest circus sensations who will create seriously fun kids cabaret in the 'La Petite' big top. Its sophisticated and yet outrageously unpredictable.

Remember anything goes, After School Hours...
